Who would you recommend to watch at Bloodstock?

What is your best festival memory?

“I don’t remember, that’s how great it was.”

Bloodstock is famed for festival-goers drinking out of horns, what’s the weirdest thing you’ve drank out of?

“A hash pipe. I can’t recommend it!”

What are your three essential items to take to Bloodstock?

“A red carpet, four pints of bat blood and a goat!”

In one sentence, why should people come and watch you guys at Bloodstock?

”‘Cause if they don’t they will never have lived!”
